I have a few people asking meā¦
āJeremy, how do I join Navy Federal?ā,
First call NF @ 1 (888) 842-6328
Select the prompt become a new member
When the representative gets on the line youāll tell them that they want to become a new member.
the rep will ask how you are affiliated to become a member, if you are they in the navy, military, or army.
TELL THEM:
āMy FATHER was in the Navy and unfortunately he is deceased at this time.ā
AGAIN, YOUR FATHER WAS NAVY
NOT ARMY, NOT MARINE.
YOUR FATHER WAS NAVY.
āMy father always spoke so highly of Navy Federal (NF) and now I want to join since my goal is to purchase a home and saw your commercial.ā
Once the rep reads the disclosure, you are in!
Congratulations ššš¾
Itās $5 to start your account but itāll better to start with a larger deposit if possible.
You can fund your bank account with a credit card and then do a pledge loan!
Now there a few more things the representative may ask so keep these in mind:
āWhat is your fatherās name?ā
Proceed to make up a name.
Example: Robert āYour Last Nameā or use a real member who served.
If the rep asks for the DDT 214 number.
Say: āUnfortunately I donāt have the number, he is deceased and itās been very difficult.ā
If they say they need the DDT 214 number hang up and call back.
They may ask why do you want to be apart of Navy Federal
Simply just say āI would like to purchase a home in the near futureā
Remember, this is just one of the many great credit unions out there (one that I recommend),
